So a little bit more information, is the pump outside in the aquaroll or inside? And working how? Hot and cold both affected
OK a few possible hints and some may be obvious so apologies.
If the hose outside kinked or not straight in the aquaroll? Is there water in the aquaroll (sorry maybe too obvious), are you on EHU or battery and the battery is OK? The drain value hasn't become open by any chance? Any leaks anywhere?

Ok so you can hear the pump whirring away? Do you have a pressure valve? It looks like a knurled wheel that you can turn? There may be something broken inside the pump or have you tried taking the pump out giving it a (mild) knock or shake, there may be an air lock. Or take the pump out and disconnect the hose from the caravan and do the same?
Failing that you could try replacing the whole hose/pump? Site offices may sell them or the wardens might have a spare?

Posted on 09/04/2022 20:38 by PeteCIAn airlock in submersible pump is quite common. It won't happen, or can be cleared, if you put the pump in the aquaroll before plugging the pipe into the caravan.
This will allow any air to escape up the pipe.
